Grabbing Opportunities
She was there, she was finally there - the big apple. New York the place where it all happened, the home of Broadway here one day she might compose and play.
She had dreamed of this as a kid, a teenager and all though college in LA. She just wished she could have experienced it with him. Still even without him, she would experienced it as she ought to with a smile and slightly in awe. She had a fantastic opportunity in her hands, she got to teach at a high school - change children's lives. All while looking for her big break on Broadway.
In high school, Kelsi never received a scholarship to Julliard but she did receive from USC Thornton School of Music in Southern California. Her parents had vied for her to stay in Albuquerque but she spread her wings and left home. Ryan was the one to receive the scholarship to Julliard, if she remembered rightly he had offered it to her and asked Julliard to consider her instead of him but she had urged him to go for it, and he had been in New York for the past six years.
Before she started at the school, she had two days to tour the city and take it in and she was in awe. It was an amazing place.
The next two days where filled with finishing of her apartment, finding out how to get to and from her home and work and filling touring the city.
She started at Long Island City High School – it was her first day.
"Hey beautiful need someone to show you around," came a voice.
Kelsi sighed she knew due to her size she could be mistaken for a high school kid.
"Boys run along," came a voice. A voice filled with authority.
"Yes Mr Evans," muttered the guys, running past Kelsi. Who tensed at the voice and name.
Of all the places she had to end up in the same high school as him.
She turned around.
Her eyes travelled up and locked with eyes of her saviour. Blue eyes, his eyes - Ryan Evans – the one that got away without realizing it.
"Kelsi?" he asked.
